Exhale

Adam Zagoria finally has the type of quote we were looking for regarding Bobby Gonzalez's job status and this Wednesday's Board of Regents meeting - which was almost one of the most anticipated Board meetings in SHU history.

"Bobby Gonzalez is the basketball coach at Seton Hall," Quinlan said. "The meeting is a regularly scheduled board meeting. This topic (Gonzalez) is not on the agenda and there is no information included on this topic on the meeting materials....

The university has not had any discussions with Tim Welsh. Bobby Gonzalez is the basketball coach. We would not be having conversations with another coach."

That is as solid a statement as you will get from Quinlan and media outlets such as ESPN and the Post, which reported on the possible dismissal, should note the AD's remarks before it damages our recruiting efforts - even though it was cool to be the lead story on NJ.com for a bit (screen shot below).

The recruiting "dead period", when coaches are not allowed contact with recruits, ends on April 10th, at which point Bobby Gonzalez can do what he does best.
